Purina Pet Gear Training Pads

Product Review: Purina Pet Gear Training Pads

First, I have to say, we have 3 dogs. We've been using training pads for over 11 years, for all 3 of our dogs. Our dogs range in sizes from 6 lbs to 30 lbs. All of them are trained to use potty pads when we are not home.
Over the years, we've used every brand possible. We've tried the more expensive pads, and we've tried the cheaper pads, even where we buy in bulk to get a better price. I mean, who wants to spend a lot of money on something your dog uses as a toilet and you just throw away afterwords, rights?

Well one of the problems we were having with all of our pads, was that our oldest dog, our min-pin, now has a tendency to pee on the CORNER of the pads - and the pee just rolls right off the pad. So frustrating! We were at our wits end when we finally found Purina Pet Gear training pads. We first saw there was a Rebate for a free box on Facebook. So, we made a trip to Walmart to try these pads.

Not thinking they would be any better than any other pad, BOY, were we wrong!! These pads are the BEST pads we have ever used!! These training pads soak up the pee immediately - absolutely nothing leaks off of these pads! Our min-pin can pee on the corners, to all her heart's desire - and the pad just soaks it all up! And we're finding that we're actually using a lot LESS pads than normal, because with our previous pads, they would be so soaking wet, we had to put several pads down so they could use a clean one. With Purina Pet Gear pads, they not only soak up the pee right away, but they remain dry on top - which means our dogs will share the same pad, saving us money!!

And if you're wondering about price - they are VERY reasonable! A 20ct box is $8.52 at Walmart, and at our store there was a $1 coupon on the box, so they are $7.52 for 20. Or, you can get a 40 ct box for $12.52 and they had a $4 coupon on the box! So you are paying only $8.52 for 40 pads! Comes out to 21¢ a pad, which is pretty much what we were paying for the other pads. Even without the $4 coupon, these are the pads for us.

If you are looking for the BEST quality training pads, try these out, you won't be disappointed!

I agree, these are the best pads I have used. I have a 20 pound dog and she sometimes has a tendency to go wee wee on the edge of the pad in which her pee would just run off onto the floor. I have purchased the Wal-mart brand pads that come in the white package and those are basically useless. I have to literally place an old throw rug underneath the pads because the urine soaks right through and even seeps/sweats out through the plastic liner and they dont hold the urine smell either. The Purina brand are tops, no urine smell, no seepage, no run offs. I thought the are however a bit more expensive but I do use less of the Purina pads because they hold more liquid than the Walmart brand.
